Happy birthday to my SEVEN year old tiny bebe Cohe Happy birthday to my SEVEN year old tiny bebe Cohen! He rolled his eyes at me when I said it’s crazy that he went from 6…to 7! If you know you know. 

Cohen is so sweet, kind, helpful, and smart. He loves building hot wheels tracks, setting up play areas for his little brothers, swimming, NASCAR, baseball, and never sitting still or being quiet… ever. 😆 

I’m so thankful God chose me to be his mom! I love you Cohen!! Happy birthday!!

I have the MOST FUN any time I’m in front of Michelle’s camera. She is so fun to hang out with and it ends up being the best girl time + hair and makeup! Y’all know I have 4 kids and I work from home.. I don’t get to feel fancy very often! If you like laughing until your cheeks hurt (your face cheeks) and feeling 🔥 - book a shoot with her! 10/10 highly recommend.

Thank goodness for spring. 🌸 2026 has been kin Thank goodness for spring. 🌸

2026 has been kind of a weird, wild ride so far, but full of good things. I started a new job! And that has taken up a lot of my time (in a good way), so I’ve been a little bit quiet around here.

I’m trying as hard as I can to prioritize myself more these days. Finally went to the doctor and did some blood work. Turns out, I’m severely anemic. I’m hoping I’ll start feeling better and little more awake after I start my iron. 😅 Maybe I can lay off the coffee a little bit. (J/k)

I can’t believe it’s almost April after we went through 3 years of January, but I’m not mad about it! Ready to relax outside on patios with family/friends and enjoy our kiddos running around. We made it. 🖤

And he said this to his social media loving picture taking wife who is finally feeling the sunlight on her face after months of seasonal depression. 🤪 Might just turn this into a Nate appreciation account. Stay tuned.😉

Leaving On A Jet Plane

Well we’re finally on our way to Chicago and should arrive there in about an hour! I wish I could take my tripod and be an artsy photography freak and lug it around everywhere, buuuut I’m going to refrain. I’m sure I’ll look enough like a crazy tourist without the giant tripod strapped to my back. I’m really hoping to take some great photos, including our 365 shots! But at the same time, I really want to enjoy myself and feel in the moment- not like I have to busy myself capturing every single thing. Sometimes you just have to live, right?

I’ve gathered a few cool photos I’ve found here and there of Chicago around the web to get me super excited!

So, have you ever been to Chicago? If so- do you have a favorite place to go or visit? Leave a comment for when we land and let us know so that we can add it to our itinerary!

    I've been there a few times, We always took the cheapo Mega Bus from Cinci. I'm never forget an 11 dollar Long Island Iced Tea that I had at Mcfadden's OUCH! Though I will say it was one STRONG ass drink.

    I think my favorite part is the BEAN. I'm sure you will love it to – it's fun for taking pictures!! And of course Navy peir!
